The best way to figure out where the pdf went is to create another one. When the Windows box comes up on your screen where you need to give the pdf a name, look and see WHERE the pdf is saving too. You can then exit out without actually saving the second pdf. You should now know where the

You are not doing anything wrong, 1/2 children show only when they are linked to one of the two people who are spouses in the current family view. Only 2 children show with the first wife because they are the only children linked to that couple (children of wives 2 and 3 are not 1/2 kids here).
